How to Avoid Danger in Thun-
der Storms.

The chief danger incurred by human
beings and other living animals is due
to their bodies being better conductors
IN the sense that they afford consider
able resistance to electrical discharges
passing through them, and therefore
give rise to the development of heat
and mechanical and molecular distur-
bance. A man standing, walking or
riding upon an open plain during a
thunder storm is in dangerous posi-
ton, because his body is apt to be made
stepping stone for the discharge. Of
fering less resistance to it than the air.
The danger is increased by the near
presence water, or large masses of
metal in the ground. Dry, low-lying
positions are safer than such as are
elevated and exposed. The close
neighbOrhOOd of water courses should
avoided. 1t is better to lie fiat upon
the ground than it is to stand or sit. If
shelter is near, the individual should
get at once completely under cover.
To stand under the lee of a house. wall
hay stack or thicket of trees is more
dangerous than to remain altogether
exposed in the open air. The inside of
barn or clubhouse, we'll away from the
walls, is comparatively safe. A dis
tance of two or three yards away from
trunks or branches of trees is a COM
paratively safe position; but to lean
against the trunk of tree during the
prevalence of a thunder storm is espe-
cially dangerous. In the interior of a
house not adequately protected by a
lightning conductor it is best to keen

Jacob Sharp Convicted.

The Sharp jury Thursday with sur
prlsing and gratifying promptness rem
dered a verdict against the briber.
The evidence against him was too
strong and the weather too hot to make
even moderate delay palatable. and
thirteen minutes after the case was
given to the jury it returned with a
verdict of guilty.
1t is just two weeks since the trial
proper began, after four weeks had
been spent in getting jury. The evil
dence is familiar. 1t was brought ont
in detail in the half dozen long trials of
the Doodle aldermen. They took the
money which Sharp paid in order to
induce them to give him a franchise
for nothing which was worth millions
to the city. The 100000 which Sharp
distributed among the aldermen con-
WINGED them very easily that it was far
better to give his company the right to
oulld street railway on Broadway
"
than to give it to any other which
might have been willing to paw ten
times Sharp's outlay to the CITY treas
ury but did not have the foretbouobt
to see the aldermen in Sharp's fashion.
The conviction and punishment of

SeafOrd Peaches and Raspberries.

James ]. Ross, Charles Wright and
L. b. Giles, of Seaford, have sold their
crop of red raspberries to Smith & Co.,
commission men of Philadelphia. at an
average price of 8 cents per quart, de-
livered at the station there. Ross will
have about 10000 quarts, Giles, 10000,
and Wright, 10000 or so. Colonel E.
L. Martin shipped two crates ofpeaches
ON Monday week. They are of an ear
ly variety which has no name. 1t was
discovered some years ago by John S.
Barnhart, nurseryman, in the pine
thicket in the Southern part of Broad
Creek hundred. Colonel Martin saws
that they are a sort of peach a man
should be fined $5 a tree. They wither
and rot little more speedily than did
JOnah's gOurd. One may pick appar-
emily sound peaches from the tree, but
if the tree is very tall, they will rot be-
fore they reach the basket on the
ground. In the absence of any other
name they might fittingly be called
" Jonah's gOurds." However, Colonel
Martin ships these peaches and gets
some money out of them. The peach
crop in this section of Sussex is going
to be uncOmfOrtably short.
